🥘 Ingredients
The honey garlic slow cook pork chops are so easy to make. It's a quick dump-and-go slow cooker recipe, so prep time is an absolute minimum.
Pork chops - use thick-cut pork chops or boneless pork steaks if you prefer.
Garlic cloves - if you love garlic add half a teaspoon of garlic powder too.
Honey - clear runny honey is best.
Ketchup - add a lovely sweetness.
Soy sauce - or use Worcestershire sauce instead.
Parsley - for garnish
You may want to thicken the sauce with a cornflour slurry or thickening granules.
🔪 Instructions
How to cook pork chops in slow cooker
The recipe card with ingredient quantities and detailed instructions can be found at the bottom of the post
One: Place the pork chops in your slow cooker.
Two: Mix up the honey garlic sauce and pour it over the pork chops.
Three: Cook on high for 4 hours ( or 6 hours on low). Thicken the sauce with a cornflour slurry or thickening granules if desired.
Four: Garnish with parsley before serving.
🍴 Serving suggestions
There are a lot of options when it comes to serving these tender pork chops. My favourite way of serving them is with roasted baby potatoes or crispy polenta roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, and slow cooker red cabbage. Stir-fried green beans and roasted Brussels sprouts also work well.
Creamy mashed potato, egg noodles, cauliflower rice, and turmeric rice are other tasty options.
📖 Variations
- Try using lamb chops instead of pork chops and replace the parsley with freshly chopped mint.
- Spice up the honey garlic sauce by adding a teaspoon of hot chilli powder.
- The honey garlic sauce is also great with chicken breasts.
- Make a creamy sauce instead, using a can of cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom soup.
🥡 Storage
Store - Leftovers can be placed in an airtight container and kept in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheat - In a microwave until piping hot.
🧊 Suitable for freezing?
The slow-cooked pork chops can be frozen for up to 3 months. Once cooled, place in a freezer-safe container and pour over the sauce, seal with a tightly fitting lid, and place in the freezer. Defrost in the fridge before reheating in the microwave.
❓ FAQS
Aesthetically, there may be an argument in favour of browning, but there is no need to brown the chops before placing them in the slow cooker.
Pork chops can be cooked on high for 4 hours or on a low setting for 6 hours.
Pork chops are a lean cut of meat, and when cooked on the hob or in a conventional oven, they are relatively quick-cooking and prone to overcooking. The benefit of slow-cooking pork chops is that the trapped steam and heat within the slow cooker help tenderise the chops, making it almost impossible to overcook them.

Made this this week, sauce was lovely, meat falling off the bones, going to try the sauce with chicken breasts this week, not quite sure how long to cook for, any idea?
Beth Sachs
Hi Leigh. Glad you enjoyed it. I'd cook chicken breasts for 6 hours on low.
Tessa
Did this last night and loved it. An hour before serving I added 150g of rice and 1 1/2 the volume of the rice in water and the whole dish was delicious. Much better than the boring lion steaks we were going to have and less work in a heat wave.
Julie
Came out wonderful using boneless pork loin chops. Such a great tasting sauce & tender pork. Served with homemade Mac n Cheese & roasted Brussels sprouts.
